Story

All residents of medieval Europe slept in nightgowns, more like dresses. This sleepwear was long and loose, but sleeping in it was not always comfortable and convenient: it got tangled in the legs, crumpled and twisted. Nevertheless, the Europeans could not come up with anything more comfortable, so in some cases they slept completely without clothes.

The first mentions of the appearance of pajamas in Europe are ambiguous. So, there is a version that it was brought by travelers from India in 1870-1890. According to other sources, the French are from long journeys, in particular from Goa. But at that time, this item of clothing did not take root among the European population, which was conservative in some matters.A nightgown remained practically the only option for sleeping for several decades.

It wasn't until the early 20th century that pajamas grew in popularity. Then it was actively worn by men, and by the middle of the century it completely replaced the nightgown.

The styles are especially interesting. Classic trousers and a shirt will no longer surprise anyone, and therefore stylists are offering us more and more unusual solutions. Recently popular:

  1. Pajamas with T-shirts and shorts/breeches.
  2. Overalls for sleeping, one of the varieties of which is kigurumi. This is a jumpsuit from Japanese culture with a hood and a zipper or button closure. Kigurumi is especially popular among teenagers.
  3. Pajamas with T-shirts. They are great for sleeping in hot, stuffy rooms.

In addition, pajamas are available for women or men. They vary in cut and colors. But today unisex models are also in fashion, which suit everyone, regardless of their gender.
